Re: Blind Date
Oh I didn't mean to imply, Willow, that your marriage was arranged! I was just pointing out that arranged marriages do work - and yes, I know a few folk, some are good friends who had their marriages arranged! Mind you, their parents were from Pakistan! I kind of forgot that!Re: Blind Date
Re: Blind Date
BV My husband does attend a Probus men's group once a month for retired business and professional guys, which he enjoys. It is held in the morning, which is great as after 6pm he isn't firing on all cylinders so can't go out and about after that time. We did look at the University of the Third Age and he gave it a go, but he didn't enjoy it at all, not intellectually stimulating enough, and many people just ignored him, which wasn't very nice. He helped out at the local OXFAM shop for a year, but got very frustrated as he wasn't happy with the way it was being run, and frankly he found it boring. He enjoys gardening, and keeps ours and our daughter's vicarage garden in good order, that doesn't feed his brain. He can play chess, but isn't as good as he was, and has to rely on our daughter or eldest grandson for a game, which doesn't happen very often. He listens to classical music which he enjoys, and reads books on his Kindle.
